I'm parterning with Jo-Rosie to bring you an brand new, upgraded way to raise your next puppy.

Jo has the smarts and knowledge and the fancy video platform, and I have the boots on the ground, can be your in-person connection and support, and provide the tailored plans just for YOU!

This takes the pressure off me to make training videos and gives me more time to help you with your specific problems and goals.

The puppy development system includes everything from how to choose the right puppy, to the first 72 hours at home, right up to all the knowledge and basic training skills you'll need into adolescence.

I'll be lauching group puppy classes in the new year, but am offering BetterDog one-to-one sessions from NOW. There is even a little discount available for you if you sign up via me.

🐾 The final Good Dog Club classes for 2026 are here! 🐾

Five Saturdays left to finish the year with a happier, more confident dog. Here’s what’s coming up:

🗓 7 Nov: Cafe Visit (themed class)
Settling with distractions, leave it, and wait and stay. Practice for coffee dates with your dog.

🗓 14 Nov: Group Walk
Loose lead skills, focus and engagement, recall and leave it, out in the park at Neighbourhood House.

🗓 21 Nov: Intro to Scentwork
Let your dog’s nose do the work. A brilliant way to build confidence and tire out a busy brain. Fantastic for older dogs, teenagers, working breeds, or really any dog.

🗓 28 Nov: Intro to Scentwork
Same as the week before, of continue on if you want to come to both.

🎄 5 Dec: Christmas Class (themed class)
Mat settle, drop and thank you, polite greetings and leave it. Perfect prep for visitors, presents and the festive chaos.

Then that’s a wrap for 2026!

Saturdays, 1:00pm to 1:45pm at Kingston Neighbourhood House
$50 per class.

Come to one or come to them all. Book your spot here 🧡

Have you even seen better lead walking skills?!

10/09/2026

Spring has arrived and there are spots open in The Good Dog Club 🐾

Saturdays at Kingston Neighbourhood House, 1:00 to 1:45pm. Indoors, warm and dry, whatever Tasmania decides to do with the weather that day.

Four dogs maximum. Minimal chaos, no waiting around for your turn, and enough space for dogs who find big busy classes a bit overwhelming.

We rotate through a five week program:
🐕 Engagement and focus
🐕 Loose lead walking
🐕 Obedience
🐕 Recall
🐕 Handling and cooperative care

You can join any week, so there is no waiting for a new block to start. $50 per class.

Every class is run by me, a fully certified Canine Science Behaviourist.

Not sure whether your dog would suit it? Send me a message.

With summer coming up, snakes will be about and it will be beach weather. What better time to level up your recall skills so you can enjoy your outdoor adventures with your dog without worrying about them running off.

Two spots left in this Saturday's class on recall.

A wise friend once said to me: "adolescence is ghastly" and boy was she right.

Dear little Raffles is now a not so little, not so dear, 1 year old dog. I kid - he is still lovely, but the last few months have been a ride.

Being a trainer or a behaviourist or an experienced owner doesn't make this easier.  Sure, maybe it means I'm less likely to permanently ruin my dog somehow, but it doesn't actually make raising them any easier.

I still have to deal with the regression in recall, the increased interest in the environment and other dogs, the decreased interest in me, the emergence of breed traits and sexually dimorphic behaviours like leg cocking and marking, and the emotional roller-coaster that all teenagers go through.

I am reaffirmed in my belief that dog training/behaviour modification/puppy raising is never a straight science - it's always an art as well, because we are dealing with living beings with their own thoughts and feelings.

Teenage dogs are the most frequent age group surrendered to rescues.

But I can see glimpses of the wonderful dog he is and will become, and I tell myself to just be as patient, understanding, and supportive as I can be.

Happy First Birthday Raffles.
